Talk:Family tree of the Greek gods

Dione daughter of Epimetheus?
I know Hesiod makes Dione, the mother of Aphrodite, an Oceanid, and pseudo-Apollodorus makes her a first generation Titan, and that there's a Dione who's the daughter of Atlas (but not the mother of Aphrodite) but were does the tradition of Dione, mother of Aphrodite and consort of Zeus as the daughter of Epimetheus come from?

 * As you pointed out, the different versions are:
 * Hesiod – daughter of Oceanus and Tethys.
 * Bibliotheca – daughter of Gaia and Uranus and mother of Aphrodite
 * Homer – mother of Aphrodite
 * Hyginus – mother by Zeus of Aphrodite and the child of Earth and Aether
 * A few secondary sources: Hard, p. 80; Gantz, p. 12; Grimal, s.v. Dione, p. 138; Tripp, s.v. Dione, p. 203; Smith, s.v. Dione.
 * There is also the Dione that is the daughter of Atlas and the wife of Tantalus, the Nereid Dione, and apparently she's also mentioned by Pherecydes.
 * Nowhere in any of these sources is Epimetheus mentioned, so (as far I can tell) this is simply erroneous. Even if there is a version somewhere in which Dione is daughter of Epimetheus, it wouldn't be correct to have it displayed here, as this chart should represent the most widely accepted account of their parentage, children, etc.
 * As Hesiod is followed throughout much of this chart, and his version is usually taken before that in the Bibliotheca and in Hyginus, I think Dione ought to be changed here so she's a daughter of Oceanus and Tethys. This will require a bit of fiddling about, but, if what I've said is agreeable, I'll see if I can do it.
